Hi

Rather interesting post from someone in the Surrey LUG about newest
Linux Format magazine.

I quote /'
/

/I opened up my LXF mag today and read pg 60, a nice 4 page article,
on "Spice up your LUG", exhorting improvements to LUGs and how
to set one up.  One extract:

"lug.org.uk
In the UK you don't have any excuse not to have an active website and
online paraphernalia like a mailing list and file server.  That's because
it's all available for free through http://lug.org.uk.  This is a portal
to all things LUG in the UK, offering domain registration, PHP and
CGI-enabled web hosting, mailing lists and email."

But turning to pg 16 there's an announcement of how Herefordshire
has taken back control of its website and how it had taken a long time to
get started because they even gave up waiting for the admins at lug.org.uk
to modify their DNS records to point at the new site and bought a new
domain name.  Finally the DNS was changed after a 6 week wait.

LXF seems to be sending rather a mixed message.'/

Interesting, as I didnt even know our LUG as made it to print !!
